By now I'm sure all of you know about the Kronans showing up in Thor:TDW. Personally I'm excited to see such diversity among the races so far and I can't wait until we find out about more. The first film only showed Asgardians and Frost Giants, so I'm glad to see MS stepping it up a notch for the sequel.

So what do you guys think about the inclusion of the Kronans so far and what other races do you hope to see?

Please let there be a mention of the Olympians.... Please let there be a mention of the Olympians.... Please let there be a mention of the Olympians.... Please let there be a mention of the Olympians....

It kind of reminds me of The Thing.

I've heard this talk of Kronans, but I'm not sure where it came from. Did someone working in the movie said they'd be there, or was there footage at comic con, or what?

I'm pumped that they're in. I hope alien gods (kinda like in TheGod Butcher) are mentioned or briefly seen. And of course Olympians (they might be able to wait til Thor 3). And then the standard Badoon, Korbinites, and all mythological species. Not all of them in The Dark World, but in the third movie and hopefully fourth as well.

Christopher Yost confirmed the Kronans being in the film, he's one of the writers.

I'm going to make a bold suggestion here and say several alien races will be in the movie if only as a cameo or a blink or you'll miss it appearance.

^ Woah nice find, I'd love for the Kronans to actually look like that in the movie and hopefully there are more than one. I say that because I want to see some of them put up a fight and the one from the SDCC definately didn't.

BTW, I would like to see Olympians (some day), ice giant (which are not to be confused with frost giants), trolls (they have to be in a Thor movie and not in a Thor thread ) and maybe dwarfs.

Agreed on trolls. I'd have loved it if Ulik were leading the "Marauders" if it fit with story, even if it was little more than a cameo. I guess we have the Kronan for our fanboy cameo instead. Even a troll or two fighting amongst the Marauders would be cool.
